Eric Thames

...

it hits Eric Thames hard on the baseball.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Nyjer Morgan is one of the ceremonial first pitches on Sunday afternoon, a big fan favorite, big personality.

And Eric Thames, who I'm telling you, as soon as you see him, uh, in the jersey, he does look like he can still play right now.

He loves those, uh, home run, uh, derbies that w- that we do with the alumni in the summertime.

So Eric Thames and Nyjer Morgan will throw out the ceremonial first pitches on Sunday.

And for the national anthem on Saturday, it's g- I think it's gonna be very powerful.

Jenny Thiel, who will have a bald eagle from Schlitz Audubon named Valkyrie, will be there for the national anthem, and a giant American flag is gonna be unfurled across the outfield of American Family Field.

He's already been back before for some postseason first pitches.

And Eric Thames is also gonna be back as well for game two, throwing out a ceremonial first pitch.

So, uh, that's going to be a whole lot of fun as well.

Uh, get a couple of Brewers legends back in there for these games.

Uh, wouldn't be surprised to see, you know, Bud Selig, uh, out there also.

Uh, so you got some possibilities for later on down the line.

But when you're starting here in the NL-- y- you don't wanna use that in the NLDS, okay? That- that's, that's the time for the Carlos Gomezs and the Eric Thames of the world.

Um, you gotta save the, the big guns there for, for the much bigger games, uh, later on here.

Here we go.

Niger Morgan and Eric Thames.

Niger Morgan and Eric Thames.

Got the unforgettable Niger Morgan walk-off hit, game five of the 2011 NLDS.

Sends Milwaukee to the NLCS then, so there you go.
